The workmen are layiug down a new style of rail on the Central road. It is higlier, and by a different shape on the inside the flange of the car wheel will not wear on it 30 fast as with the old kind. The average use of a steel rail is three or four years where there is as mu:)i trafflc as the Central has. There is every rt-ason why there should be a general turn out at the annual school meeting next Monday for the election of three members of the Board of Education to UU the vacancy of that number of the board whose terms expire soon.

"W'hcn the train reached Lower Town a number of the hands waiting thnre signallcd the enginéer to stop for them, and Hudson stepping to the brake lost bis balance while setting it and feil between the rail?, with the train moving slowly. None of the wheels touched the fallen man, but the tixtures of one truck in passing over bruised hini and broke his rigiit leg bet.veen tlie kneeand thetruiik. Drs.
